Hand made grips for my 1895 SAA

I didn't like the lame fake stag grips that the previous owner put on this gun, so I decided to make someof my own.... These are hand made by me from solid birch. The inlayed coins are 1895 Indian Head Pennies (heads and tails).

Whole new meaning to "Let's flip a coin!"

Nice looking!

Very unique and well done! How did you learn to make grips on your own? I'm intrigued to learn this craft.

Gave you a "like" for DIY. From someone big on DIY, I wish I could give you more than one 'like'.

Thanks guys! I'm working on another pair right now. The new ones are going to be more of target grips with a thumb rest and finger grooves! I know it's not traditional, but they will be more challenging to create!

Oh, and I'm making some 1911 grips! I want to find some WWI or WWII military pins to inlay. Or, maybe I'll engrave something! Idk yet
